will need to think of an order, but these come to mind:
protomartyr - ultimate success today Fiona Apple - fetch the bolt cutters owen pallett - island bohren and der club of gore - patchouli blue Stef Kett - Cry and sing Global Charming - Brutal, Mediocre Neil Young - homegrown Wasted Shirt - Fungus II Fred Cracklin - Anxiety Kinship Shifting - It Was Good |
I'm not sure I even listened to 20 albums during this shitty year, but fetch the bolt cutters is definitely A+ material

Didn't listen to that many new albums, but my absolute favourite was Songs by Adrianne Lenker.
|
clearly you haven't heard the new boris album(s)
|
Here's my favorite 5 albums of 2020 in no particular order!
Beabadoobee - Fake It Flowers Sad bedroom guitar girl doing 90s style alt rock is 100% my shit Hayley Williams - Petals For Armor This is a beautiful album and Hayley sounds so much more authentic and real when not having to do Paramore music. Stand Atlantic - Pink Elephant The solid pop punk album that 16 year old me desperately needed, but damn if i'm not still gonna enjoy it now. PVRIS - Use Me This band has been on my radar for a while, but this album is like they fully developed their sound and aesthetic. Fever 333 - Wrong Generation Kind of a modern day Rage Against the Machine in some regards, not everyone's cup of tea. But worth checking out in my imo. Honorable Mentions: Kero Kero Bonito - Time 'N' Place actually came out a few years ago but I only discovered it this year, and it's a really good album people shouldn't sleep on. WARGASM (UK) They haven't put out an album yet, but their singles kick ass, they quickly became one of my go-to lockdown bands between their new music and streams. That time Doja Cat did a rocked out version of Say So at the EMAs I mean, it's like someone downloaded this video directly from my brain. |

Here are some things I liked a lot from this year. I won’t rank them. I don’t like ranking things. Here are some things anyway, in the order of my recollection:
MSC & The Body - I Don’t Ever Want to Be Alone Midwife - Forever Mamaleek - Come & See Sightless Pit - Grave of a Dog Phoebe Bridgers - Punisher Cindy Lee - What’s Tonight to Eternity Sprain - As Lost Through Collision Gulch - Impenetrable Cerebral Fortress Thou and Emma Ruth Rundle - May Our Chambers Be Full The Microphones - Microphones in 2020 Hand Model - Manufactured Joy Nothing - The Great Dismal Freddie Gibbs & Alchemist - Alfredo Westside Gunn - Pray for Paris Duma - S/T Uboa - The Flesh of the World Haus Arafna - Asche Soccer Mommy - color theory Mary Lattimore - Silver Ladders Oliver Coates - skins n slime Anna von Hausswolff - All Thoughts Fly NGHTCRWLR - Let the Children Scream Vyva Melinkolya - Violet Boris - NO Sugar High - Love Addict Honorable mentions: Sumac - May You Be Held Primitive Man - Immersion Fiona Apple - Fetch the Bolt Cutters Neptunian Maximalism - Eons clipping. - Visions of Bodies Being Burned Oransi Pazuzu - Mestarin kynsi Things I haven’t got to yet but seem more likely than not to make the list eventually: William Basinski - Lamentations Armand Hammer - Shrines Sadness - Alluring the Distant Eye Ka - Descendants of Cain Liturgy - Origin of the Alimonies Black to Comm - Oocyte Oil & Stolen Androgens Hors concours: The Body - I’ve Seen All I Need to See. A 2021 release that shipped early, this was the most exciting new record I heard this year |
The new Black Wing record was kinda cool but I don’t know. I can’t seem to get into it as much as other people are
|
FOLKLORE
punisher JCC record |
Maybe someday I’ll get to listen to that Mach Hommy record. I like his music a lot but I really find this whole $444 for a record business obnoxious
